Summary in the original language of the document
Grazing ruminant systems serve as a basis of livelihood for households in large regions world-wide, but have been
abandoned in industrialised agriculture. In ecological and climate-related debates, they are viewed as both a solution
and a misconception of livestock production. Against this background, this article spotlights the opportunities grazing
provides to unifying ecological, animal welfare and product quality requirements.
